### Camera API

#### capture({ ... }) - must have the wanted camera capture reference

Capture image (`{ saveToCameraRoll: boolean }`). Using the camera roll is slower than using regular files stored in your app. On an iPhone X in debug mode, on a real phone, we measured around 100-150ms processing time to save to the camera roll.

```js
const image = await this.camera.capture();
```

#### checkDeviceCameraAuthorizationStatus (iOS only)

```js
const isCameraAuthorized = await Camera.checkDeviceCameraAuthorizationStatus();
```

return values:

`AVAuthorizationStatusAuthorized` returns `true`

`AVAuthorizationStatusNotDetermined` returns `-1`

otherwise, returns `false`

#### requestDeviceCameraAuthorization (iOS only)

```js
const isUserAuthorizedCamera = await Camera.requestDeviceCameraAuthorization();
```

`AVAuthorizationStatusAuthorized` returns `true`

otherwise, returns `false`

## QR Code

```js
import { CameraScreen } from 'react-native-camera-kit';

<CameraScreen
  actions={{ rightButtonText: 'Done', leftButtonText: 'Cancel' }}
  onBottomButtonPressed={(event) => this.onBottomButtonPressed(event)}
  scanBarcode={true}
  laserColor={'blue'}
  frameColor={'yellow'}
  onReadCode={(event) => Alert.alert('Qr code found')} //optional
  hideControls={false} //(default false) optional, hide buttons and additional controls on top and bottom of screen
  showFrame={true} //(default false) optional, show frame with transparent layer (qr code or barcode will be read on this area ONLY), start animation for scanner,that stoped when find any code. Frame always at center of the screen
  offsetForScannerFrame={10} //(default 30) optional, offset from left and right side of the screen
  heightForScannerFrame={300} //(default 200) optional, change height of the scanner frame
  colorForScannerFrame={'red'} //(default white) optional, change colot of the scanner frame
/>;
